by Medea Benjamin and Nicolas J. S. DaviesOf all Trump’s choices for his foreign policy team, Marco Rubio is the least controversial to the neoconservative foreign policy establishment in Washington, and the most certain to provide continuity with all that is wrong with U.S. foreign policy, from Cuba to the Middle East to China.

Nomi Prins Archive End the US Dollar Chokehold on the World◄►◄►▲▼ • B The “big club” that “you ain’t in,” as George Carlin famously put it, is increasingly visible as the presidential election rolls on toward November. Politicians and the donor class that controls them have made it known to the public that they are not representatives of the majority but rather the small elite minority.

Editor’s note: Since Bitcoin was founded in 2009, there have been four halving events. It’s where, every four years, the number of new tokens that can be made – or mined – is cut in half… And with each halving event brought on a surge in Bitcoin’s price in the months that followed. The fourth and most recent halving was in April this year… And according to colleague Nomi Prins, this post-halving window could put Bitcoin on track to reach $100,000 in 2024.

Editor’s note: The U.S. national debt just edged past the $34.5 trillion mark… And at the rate it’s rising, it’ll likely hit $36 trillion by the end of the year. Meanwhile, it’s taken Congress six months to agree on a budget for fiscal year 2024… And neither side is overly happy with the outcome. The dust has only just settled and we’re already looking ahead to the next round of the congressional budget battle for 2025. It’s shaping up to be even more exhausting than the last one.

Every week, we receive great questions from your fellow readers, and I answer as many as I can. This week, the conversation surrounds two popular Inside Wall Street topics – spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs)… and the nuclear energy revival I’ve been pounding the table on…Someone wrote that spot bitcoin ETFs are mainly for the benefit of Wall Street ETF sponsors. He mentioned that ETF investors will not reap the rewards of “forking” and, of course, got into fees.

And in its most recent release two weeks ago, the Fed mentioned the possibility of cutting rates twice.

Yesterday, I showed you how about a third of Congress members outperformed the stock market in 2023…How elected officials traded stocks in sectors tied to their work…And how some even sold or bought stocks before major price moves. I’ve been tracking Congress members’ investments at Inside Wall Street since we launched this letter in 2021. The idea is that if you know where America’s most powerful are putting their money, you can position yourself to reap some of the profits.

When you think of the world’s greatest investors, who comes to mind? Maybe it’s Warren Buffett…Or John Paulson…Or Michael Burry of The Big Short fame. Well, I’ll add one name to that list. It’s a name that shouldn’t be there, and yet it makes the cut every year: the U.S. Congress. Sure, 2023 was a great year for the markets. The S&P 500 – a benchmark for U.S. stocks – ended the year up 24.8%. But it was “just OK” when you compare it to the returns of some members of Congress.

When the Soviet Union launched Sputnik in 1957, it was a blow to Dwight D. “Ike” Eisenhower’s ego. President Eisenhower couldn’t just stand by as the Soviets beat America into the new frontier of outer space. So, he asked Congress to create a civilian space agency in the U.S. And he got his wish in 1958 when Congress voted to establish NASA. The Space Race was on. Next came Project Mercury, which sent America’s first astronaut into space in 1961 – and returned him safely home.
